Dark Brown Hair

Sexy, sophisticated, elegant and chic. Brown hair colors are endless—from sandy brown to espresso, from golden brown to plum brown. Just take your pick.

The secret to standout dark brown hair is dimension—a lively play of highs and lows. So consider highlights or balayage to upgrade your rich hue. You can go for contrast with caramel or toffee lights or opt for a tone-on-tone effect with a lighter shade of your natural color.

Pro Tip: The secret to beautiful brown hair color is shine, but hot tools can dull and damage your hair. That’s why Matrix pros always recommend using a heat protection formula before blow drying or styling with thermal irons.
